Creative DirectorCharlotte I fell into design by accident. Having almost finished my undergrad in computer science, I switched to art. Now that didn’t sit too well with my dad, a retired Army Special Forces colonel – ‘son, what can you possibly do with an art degree?’ But I had to find my own path. And after helping build big brands like AAA, Speed Channel and NASCAR, or small ones, like a funky mom & pop record shop on the other side of town, I’m so glad I made the switch. Over time, my dad came around. But he still introduces me as, ‘my son, the graphic artist.’
